Entrance
The entrance to your house is also called the mouth of chi which in other words is where opportunities come knocking. It is also the first things visitors notice and so do you when entering your house. Keeping the entrance area clean and appealing is a good way to start. Keep the paint-work appealing, replace anything broken or unnecessary, keep the entrance way well-lit etc.

De-clutter
If there are rooms or corners around your house and workplace which are extremely cluttered and look like a storm just passed by, this should be your next Feng Shui stop. Cluttering is said to stagnate the chi or energy. Piling up dirty dishes and clothes, disorganized closets and cupboards etc. are a good place to start. To ensure a good flow of energy, it is essential to set up a proper stage for good Feng Shui and that starts with clearing clutter and ensuring your house is speck clean.

Furniture setup
Setting up furniture properly is the next step to ensure good Feng Shui. Do not let any furniture big or small to block the natural walking path in between the rooms. Remove or replace furniture which has sharp edges or which can accidentally hurt you while walking around. Also, take a note not to crowd too many furniture in each or any room. Leave enough breathing space for the energy to move around.

Work Desk
If you have a work desk, it should have rounded edges and should be set up facing the doorway and not away from it. It should be preferably backed by a wall and allow your clear view of the doors and the windows in the room. This is also called the power position. It is said to enhance creativity and productivity.

Doors and Drawers
Squeaky doors and drawers or the ones that get jammed and are difficult to open should be immediately replaced or fixed. Our house is said to reflect us and Feng Shui focuses on fixing these subtle changes brought about due to our ignorance.

Repair
